About this care
Welcome to Agrarisch Kinderdagverblijf Knorretje v.o.f. located at Buitenbrinkweg 81 in Ermelo (Horst). We are a warm, homely daycare centre with a unique children's farm where children aged 0 to 4 are cared for. Every day we take the children outside to meet and look after our animals. This direct contact with animals makes our setting special and nurtures young children's natural curiosity and respect for living creatures.
Our care is small-scale and personal; we have four buildings with different groups, including vertical groups such as Vlindertje and Rupsje. The rooms are cosy and homely with a pleasant indoor space and a large play attic where children can play when it rains. We work with the VVE programme Uk & Puk, which playfully and meaningfully stimulates children's development and expands their vocabulary.
The outdoor area – with playgrounds, trampoline, swing, seesaw, play stage and lawn – is the heart of our daily routine. Each group has direct contact with the animals from the children's farm. We have a beautiful nature garden where children can be outside, explore and enjoy nature.
Creative activities are tailored to the weekly or seasonal theme. Think of crafts, reading, singing and theme activities with Puk the cuddly toy. We believe every child should feel safe and seen; our regular pedagogical staff know every child and their parents personally.
In short, at Knorretje we combine the security of a homely environment with the rich learning experiences offered by a children's farm. We look forward to welcoming you and your child!Read more
